What’s for dinner?  Sometimes it’s a challenge to find recipes that are both good tasting and good for you.  Here is one way of adding zing to slow cooker chicken.

 Chicken Taco Filling

Ingredients

 1 package dry taco seasoning mix

1 cup chicken broth

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts

Directions

Mix chicken broth and seasoning in a bowl.

Place the chicken in the slow cooker and pour the chicken broth mixture over it.

Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.

Shred the chicken and serve with a medium/low rice variety like Basmati, whole wheat tacos shells, or in a taco salad.

Can’t find any taco seasoning mix without bad added ingredients?  Here is an easy recipe for making your own.

 Taco Seasoning Mix

1 Tbsp. Chili Powder

1/4 tsp. Garlic Powder

1/4 tsp. Onion Powder

1/4 tsp. Crushed Red Pepper Flakes

1  1/2 tsp. Ground Cumin

1 tsp. Himalayan Pink Salt

1 tsp. Black Pepper

This will make just about the same amount of the packaged taco seasoning mix, but much cheaper and probably healthier!
